Find a quiet, secluded area to write. Make your writing area ergonomic. Eliminate distractions around you.

Once the child gets to be about 4-5 years old, you can set up pretend store or restaurant scenarios where you have to pay the child for goods and services. Exchange fake or real money with the child to give them a lesson about working to gain an income. For instance, you can set up a fake hamburger shop and have the child exchange play-dough hamburgers for money. Teach the child that they can’t take things from the store unless they pay for them first. They’ll be able to comprehend this concept somewhere between the ages of 4-6. If the child wants something, explain how much money it costs and whether you can buy it or not.  For instance, if the child picks up a candy bar you can say something like, “We have to pay for that candy bar if you want it. Do you know how much it costs?” You can also say, "Taking something from the store without paying is considered stealing and could get us in trouble!" Ask your child questions before you purchase something to get them thinking about how to save money, such as by asking, “That candy bar costs $0.50 less than this candy bar. Which one do you think we should get?” If the child wants more than one thing, give them a choice between things that have a similar monetary value. This will start to make them more conscious about the value of money and about how much things cost. It will also make them realize that money is limited and that sometimes they can’t have everything. For instance, you can say something like, “You can get 2 pieces of candy that cost $5 or 1 toy that costs $5. You choose.” Set a list of goals that need to be completed around the house and give them a weekly or monthly allowance for completing the goals. Help the child think of things that they want to save for to help motivate them to complete their tasks. This will give help them understand the value of money and the importance of saving.  If the child doesn’t complete the chores, don’t give them the allowance. Chores could include washing the dishes, walking the dog, taking out the garbage,...

TL;DR in English: Play “store” with 4- to 5-year-old children to teach them about income. Teach 4- to 6-year-old children about paying for things. Give children choices based on price. Provide children with an allowance for finishing chores.

4G and 3G are designed to deliver high bandwidth to cellphones; however, the distance between the transmission tower and the cellphone must be within a certain range of each other to be effective. The farther away you are away from one, the weaker the signal is going to be. If it is absolutely important for you that you can be reached for calls and texts, consider switching your phone to a 2G network instead. 2G offers a lower bandwidth than their newer counterparts but in turn you will have decent coverage in most places, especially where 3G/4G signals can't penetrate very well.  Imagine in between dense housing or enclosed spaces. Because of the lower data rate, 2G signals are able to get to hard to reach places. The only downside is that your internet connection won't be as fast. At any rate it is perfectly usable for calling and texting. To top it all off, your battery will not drain as fast since 2G doesn't require that much power. Consult your manuals of your phone on how to enable 2G networks. A new category of Smart Signal Booster is emerging. This new category of boosters utilizes super-powerful baseband processors to clean the signal before it is rebroadcast (hence the "Smart" in the name Smart Signal Booster). Most of the Smart Signal Boosters have gains of 100db (compared to analog booster's gain of 63 to 70db).  That's a 1,000 times to 2,500 times difference. Some of these new boosters, while more expensive than the traditional analog booster, are completely plug and play: you plug them, and they usually work right away without the need for complex installation of outdoor antennas (usually the donor antenna is inside the booster box).  Truly plug and play, they can be used with almost any carrier, require no installation and actually work. Most of the time, Smart Signal Boosters are carrier-specific (i.e. you need to get the one that works for your carrier). If you are having cell problems in one location, such as your home or office, then try installing a cellular repeater. Cell phone repeaters...

TL;DR in English: Try switching to a 2G network. Utilize a Smart Signal Booster. Install a cellular repeater. Upgrade your antenna. Change networks. Host a cell site.

Choose a writing spot that is in a quiet, secluded area in your home. This could be a desk in your bedroom, a table in your living room, or a secluded spot in your school library. Go for a spot that has little to no foot traffic and is barely used by others. You may set up an area to write if you do not already have access to a table or a desk. Set up a desk in your bedroom that is for writing only or put a table in the basement of your home and use it as your writing spot. To ensure your writing area is comfortable, make it ergonomic. Get a desk chair that supports your lower back. Adjust your desk chair so your feet can lie flat comfortably on the floor and your lower back is straight. If you are typing on a computer, make sure the monitor is 20 to 40 inches (50-100 centimeters) from your face. The monitor should be eye level and you should be able to see the screen without having to squint or strain your eyes. You should also make sure your keyboard is at the right height so your wrists are not strained when you type. Keep your mouse near your keyboard so you can reach it easily. One of the biggest hinderance to writing is getting distracted by things and people around you. Turn off your cellphone or switch it to silent so you are not distracted by phone calls or text messages. Keep your door closed and wear noise cancelling headphones, especially if it is noisy around you.  You may also shut off your internet connection so you are not distracted by social media or online news. Restricting yourself to certain websites can be helpful if you need resources like an online dictionary. If you live with other people, let them know you are writing and that you are not be disturbed.

TL;DR in English:


Make a chain. Round 1. Round 2. Round 3. Round 4. Check your gauge. Round 5. Round 6. Rounds 7, 8 and 9. Round 10. Round 11. Round 12. Round 13. Round 14. Round 15. Round 16. Finish.

Sending text after text, especially when you have not even received a response to the first one, will get on the other person's nerves pretty fast. Give them time to respond. Blowing up your friend's phone might seem innocent enough—until you find out later that she was at a funeral and that's why she did not respond right away. Repeatedly texting a crush can ruin a romance before it even begins. If you've sent 2 texts and your crush did not answer either of them, they may be trying to tell you they are uninterested. Adding your circle of friends or multiple family members to a group text just to share unimportant information will definitely annoy them. Other group members then chime in and suddenly everyone is getting a constant stream of pointless notifications! If you have something super brief to share that doesn't require a response, it might be okay occasionally, but otherwise, avoid group texting! Habitually texting incredibly lengthy or detailed messages irritates others and they may stop reading your texts altogether. If you have something important to say, call them or ask to meet up with them! Keep your texts short, sweet, and to the point. Writing text "novels" might be especially annoying for your crush or someone you went on 1 date with. People really don't like it when you send out a mass text on a Friday night that says, "What's going on this weekend?" or "What are you up to tonight?" A mass text like, "So what movie should I watch tonight?" is also pretty annoying. Mass texts are always super obvious and they feel really impersonal. If you do send out mass texts, you may notice that you get fewer and fewer responses over time. If you called your friend and it went to voicemail, just leave a voicemail! Don't follow up your voicemail with a text that says, "Check your voicemail" or "Hey, I'm trying to get in touch with you." If they did not answer your call, they probably are not going to answer your text. Give them time to respond. It's okay to be eager to talk to someone! Just try not to overdo it.

TL;DR in English: Do not send more than 1 or 2 texts if you have not gotten a response. Avoid group texting unless there is a real reason to do it. Keep your texts relatively brief. Do not send out mass texts to fish for ideas or things to do. Avoid texting to inform someone that you just left them a voicemail.

The acid is necessary to break down the fibers in kale so that it is tender and easy to chew. Creamy dressings like ranch or blue cheese might seem like a good idea because kale is so substantial, but they will leave your salad too chewy. This is one of the most common dressings for kale salads. It pairs particularly well with strong cheeses like pecorino or parmesan. Here are the standard ingredients:  1/2 cup shallots, finely chopped (about 1 large shallot) 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon) 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil Fresh ground black pepper and salt to taste Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, then add the olive oil and wisk to combine.  Use different types of vinegar (apple, rice, balsamic) to make a slightly sweeter dressing. Replace the oil with 2 teaspoons of honey for a sweeter, less tart dressing.  Replace the oil with 1.5 tablespoons of Dijon mustard for a dressing with a little more kick. Miso is an inexpensive ingredient made from fermented soybeans. Look for it in the refrigerated section in grocery stores. It will produce a thicker, creamier dressing, like this tahini maple dressing:  1/4 cup tahini 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 2 teaspoons white miso 2 teaspoons maple syrup pinch of red pepper flakes 1/4 cup water Add water last and whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If your dressing is too thick, add more water or vinegar, to taste. Replacing lemon with lime and lime zest will make for a milder dressing with more of a southwestern flavor. Adding brown sugar or white sugar can make for a sweeter dressing.

TL;DR in English: Use a dressing with a lot of acid like lemon juice or vinegar. Try a lemon shallot vinaigrette. Stir to combine the shallots, lemon juice, vinegar, salt and pepper. Try using miso to create a creamier dressing. Whisk together the tahini, vinegar, miso, maple syrup and red pepper flakes. Try substituting ingredients for different flavor profiles.

Sometimes, particularly if you have a vintage Ford, you may have a hard time finding a manufacturer’s label or a VIN number. Fortunately, there are numerous websites that allow you to search for Ford color codes using basic information about your vehicle.  Do a web search for something like “car color code library” or “auto paint code database.” You can also do a more specific search, like “1949 Ford paint color codes.” Sites like AutoColorLibrary.com or PaintRef.com are good places to start. Websites for Ford enthusiasts, such as MustangAttitude.com, are also great resources for finding color codes. Depending on the format of the color code database you are using, you may be able to narrow your search by selecting the year, make, and model of your Ford. In other cases, you may simply be able to browse a list of color codes for each year. For example, here is a site that allows you to search using criteria such as manufacturer, model, year, and color class (e.g., beige, red, or blue): http://color-online.glasurit.com/CCC/new/index.php. Once you’ve narrowed down the year, make, and model of your car, examine the list of “chips” or swatches to see which one is the best match for your car. For example, if you have a 1977 Ford F150 truck in a pale green color, the color is likely to be “Ford Light Jade Metallic,” for which the color code is 7L. Sometimes it can be hard to pin down the color of a car, especially if it’s a very old vehicle or the original paint is damaged, faded, or modified. Ask around on communities such as FordForum.com if you’re having trouble narrowing down the most likely color matches.

Horses require between 5-15 gallons of water per day. If possible, make sure that your horse has access to water at all times. Otherwise, make sure that you water your horse at least twice per day and allow several minutes for your horse to drink. Make sure that the water in your horse’s trough is clean and not frozen. Keep the trough clean as well by hosing it out every day. Structural carbohydrates, like hay and grass, are essential to a horse’s diet. Horses eat large quantities of hay and grass as their main source of food. In fact, horses should eat about 15-20 pounds or 1-2% of their body weight in hay every day, so make sure that your horse always has plenty of hay to chew on. Make sure that the hay you feed your horse is free of mold and dust. Nonstructural carbohydrates, like oats, corn, and barley, are also essential to a horse’s nutrition. Provide small amounts of grain to your horse throughout the day. Every day, horses can also have ½ pound of grain per 100 pounds of body weight. Feed grain to your horse in two or three evenly spaced feedings during the day.  Make sure to measure the portions that you feed your horse to make sure that you are giving her the correct amount.  If the weather is hot, feed grain to your horse during the cooler hours of the day, such as early in the morning and later in the evening. Although your horse will get most of its calories from hay and grass, you should feed your horse some fortified feed each day to help meet any nutritional gaps. Protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals are important parts of your horse’s nutrition, but they are not required in large amounts. If you think your horse is not getting all of the necessary vitamins and minerals from feed, then you can supplement with special vitamins for horses. Just be careful not to overload your horse with too many vitamins. An excess of vitamins can cause problems just like a deficiency of vitamins can. Giving treats to your horse when you want to reward her is a great way to bond with your horse as well. Just...

You’ll get the best results using a wood bore or spade bit with a flared tip. Compare the width of the bit with the diameter of your ring finger for reference. It should be just slightly narrower than your finger.  The pointed tip of the drill bit will mark the placement of the finger hole, while the angled corners bore out the outer edges of the ring. To be certain that the ring will come out the right size, take one of your own rings and slide the bit inside. It should be able to fit without touching. Situate the wood widthwise so that the dot you made to mark the finger hole is facing upwards, then twist the hand crank or dial clockwise to tighten the clamps. This will help hold the blank in place so you can concentrate on drilling.   If you don't have access to a vice or C-clamp, try using a pair of pliers to grip the outermost edge of the wood.  Under no circumstances should you attempt to hold the blank by hand. Position the tip of the bit over the dot in the center of the wood and turn on the drill. Apply a modest amount of pressure—you don’t want to drill all the way through just yet. Stop drilling when you’ve opened up a small hole with a shallow circle carved around it. Drilling straight through a piece of wood with a spade bit can result in splintering. Remove the blank from the vice or clamp, flip it over, and resecure it. Double check that the drill bit tip is aligned with the hole. Then, repeat the drilling process from the opposite side, guiding the drill steadily until it bores the rest of the way through. By drilling halfway through the blank at a time, you can minimize the risk of chipping or breaking your materials. Switch on your Dremel tool and insert the rotary head into the hole to buff the surface that will rest against your finger. You can also touch it up with a folded square of sandpaper. The inner face should be totally smooth, with no visible points or edges that could scratch you.  If you take the manual approach, start with a medium-grit sandpaper (around 80 grit) and follow it...

Choose any color you like to add to your slime. Add 1 drop directly onto the slime. Then, knead the food coloring into the slime with your hands. Keep kneading until the color is distributed evenly throughout the slime. Add another drop to make the color more noticeable. You can use 1 color or combine colors. For example, you could make blue slime with a drop of blue food coloring, or use a drop of blue and red food coloring for purple slime. You can use a special color pigment meant for making slime, or use powdered eyeshadow. Measure out 1 teaspoon (about 5 g) of the color pigment of your choice. Then, knead the pigment into your slime until the pigment is distributed evenly throughout the slime.  Add more pigment if needed to achieve the desired color. You can use any pigment or eyeshadow color you like to color your slime. Try purple pigment or eyeshadow for purple slime, or a glittery charcoal pigment or eyeshadow for sparkly black slime.

Get in shape. Change your diet. See a nutritionist and take fitness and health seriously. Don't starve yourself.

Select a fine-toothed blade and don't cut aluminum with a wall thickness of more than 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm). If possible, choose a saw blade that creates narrow kerfs (the notch or slot made by the saw). Since aluminum does not tend to close as you cut it, create narrow kerfs whenever you can. This can range from standard oil to saw wax. Since you'll be cutting metal on metal, you want to lubricate it to prevent sparks and slippage. WD-40 is the standard lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply 5 to 6 small spurts on both the bottom and top halves of the blade. The cutting speed used for wood is generally going to be too fast to safely cut aluminum. For example, if you use a 10 inch (25 cm) saw, you can reduce the blade to 7.25 inches (18.4 cm). This will slow your cutting speed. If it's not possible to alter blade sizes, consider purchasing equipment with a variable speed router and use the slowest setting. These types of equipment are typically more expensive, but offer a degree of flexibility ideal for cutting aluminum. Loosen the bar within the jaw by turning it counterclockwise. Place the clamp upright, with the open end of the jaw facing your working surface and the bottom of the jaw underneath the tabletop. Place your aluminum into the jaw and tighten the clamp around it by turning the metal rod clockwise. As an additional safety measure, use a push stick to hold and move your aluminum piece into the saw. This allows you to cut your aluminum without getting near the blades. Hold the saw firmly with your dominant hand. Apply downward pressure as you move the blade along your metal. Be sure to work slower than you would with wood. Steady, even pressure is the safest way to go.  Remain clear from the kickback zone (where recently cut pieces are thrown clear by the power of the saw) when cutting. This is usually directly behind the saw. Alternately, you can use a bridge to secure your saw and reduce kickback. Always keep your fingers away from the saw blade. Retract the blade guard and hold it beside your...

TL;DR in English: Use a wood-cutting saw with carbide-tipped blades to cut most aluminum. Apply cutting lubricants on your blades or bits. Reduce the diameter of the cutting blade for better results. Use a C-clamp to secure your aluminum piece(s). Feed the aluminum through the blade, or the blade through the aluminum. Adjust the blade depth so the blade extends 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) at most. Use a jigsaw if circular cuts need to be made in the aluminum.

When the big blasters run out of ammo, you’ll need to keep a smaller sidearm on you to stay in the game. This is when pistol-style shooters come in handy. Tuck a Sidestrike, Cycloneshock or Jolt EX-1 into your waistband and switch over once your primary weapon is spent or experiences an unfortunate but inevitable jam. It may just be the thing that pretend-saves your life!  Make sure you save a few darts for your sidearm. Many of the more compact Nerf blasters only hold between 1-3 darts. These types of blasters are easier to dual-wield, provided you’ve got the means to carry them. Opt for a bow and arrow over a point-and-shoot device in situations where you need to be swift, silent and deadly. Nerf bows shoot long, sleek “arrow” darts impressively long distances with pinpoint accuracy. The original Nerf Bow and Arrow could fire approximately 60 feet (18.3 m), while the cancelled Rebelle Platinum Bow model would have launched arrows up to 100 feet (30.5 m)!  The drawing and firing action of a bow makes significantly less noise than regular blasters, which often click loudly when they shoot. Bow and arrow launchers make excellent choices for snipers. If all else fails, mow down the competition with one of Nerf’s patented weapons of mass destruction like the Vulcan EBF-25 or Rhino-Fire blaster. These guns feature high capacity loaders that hold up to 25 darts apiece and can even be mounted so that you can block off hallways and other strongholds with a torrent of merciless foam mayhem.  Nerf machine guns can shoot at a rate of about one dart per second. Because of their complex designs and the amount of ammunition they require, machine gun models tend to be more expensive. Warlock Axe, Swift Justice, Vigilance, Marauder Longsword, Vendetta Doublesword, Strikeblade and maybe even a custom foam weapon. Add a little variety to your games by having everybody switch to a Nerf sword or battleaxe for close quarters combat. Nerf’s new line of melee weapons are molded from a single piece of soft, sturdy foam that safely...

Adriana is in great shape. She has to be. She's a Victoria's Secret model. She hired a professional nutritionist, though, to help her lose 50 pounds after she gave birth to her daughter.  Buy a scale. Hold yourself accountable for what you eat and how you let yourself go.  She thinks high-intensity workouts are best. She likes to sweat and to jump rope.  Ten minutes of jumping rope equals 35 minutes of running. She says you can burn 1,000 calories per hour long jumping rope session. To look as fit as Adriana, you have to clean up your diet. Eat a lot of steamed or raw vegetables, especially green ones like kale and broccoli. Season them with olive oil and sea salt.   She doesn't snack. But if you must, eat fruit. She suggests blackberries and blueberries. She eats green vegetables usually, steamed or raw. Things like asparagus and spinach. Eat every two to three hours. Drink at least two quarts of water daily. Take supplemental vitamins. If you get hungry, try a rice bar. When she's about to go on a show, she works out twice a day with a personal trainer. She jumps rope, boxes, and lifts weights.   She also sees a nutritionist who measured her body's muscle mass and levels of water retention. She drinks protein shakes, vitamins and supplements. She drinks a gallon of water every day. For nine days before the show, she drinks only protein shakes that include powder egg. She was once quoted as saying that, two days before a fashion show, she stops drinking extra water. However, she claimed she was misquoted. Not only is this dangerous, but it's not Adriana's look, either. She stresses to her trainers that she wants to retain some curves.  One exercise she did to get into shape after she had her baby is called the Aerosquat. To perform it, bend down. Touch the index and middle finger of both hands to the ground.

Fold sweaters rather than hanging them. Take precautions if you must hang sweaters. Hand wash your sweaters.

Keep the furniture in storage or an adjacent room until you cut and install the tiles. This will give you a clearer view of the room to ensure accurate measurements. Vacuum or mop the floor as well, and throw away any trash or debris covering the ground. Beginning from the center helps you keep the tiling pattern balanced. Mentally divide the room into 4 different quadrants and start measuring in the approximate middle. Finding the center is easiest for square or rectangular rooms. If your room is oddly shaped, start in the approximate middle. If you are adhering many tiles, making layout lines on the floor can help you make the tile patterning even. Use a tape measure to record the length and width of your tile. Make this measurement your guide as you record how many peel-and-stick tiles you will need to cover the floor. Beginning from the center of the room and outward, use chalk to record where you will lay out the peel-and-stick tiles. While measuring the layout lines, mark them in chalk to use as a guideline when you cut and adhere the tiles. Make partial lines around the sides and corners of the room so you know what shape to cut certain tiles.

TL;DR in English: Remove all furniture from the room before measuring the space. Start from the center of the room. Measure the tile layout lines, if desired. Use chalk to mark the layout lines.

You should fold your sweaters and store them in drawers rather than hanging them. Hanging sweaters can stretch out portions of the sweater. It can also leave small humps at the shoulders. If possible, fold your sweaters rather than hanging them. If you need to hang your sweaters, take certain precautions. Use thick, padded hangers to provide more support. This can help prevent stretching. You may also want to fold your sweater over and hang it from the bottom bar of a hanger. The bottom bar may provide more support, preventing stretching. You can cut open an empty paper towel tube and then fit it over the bottom bar of a hanger. This may help prevent creasing. If possible, you should always hand wash your sweaters. Hand wash them in cold water with a small amount of fabric softener and detergent. Rinse thoroughly, making sure to get all the suds out. When removing excess water before drying, press the sweater. Do not squeeze or wring it. Fold the sweater in half and hang it over the bottom bar of a hanger on a drying rack to dry.

Sometimes we just need a little reassurance and a friendly voice to help us relax. If calming yourself does not work, try to call a friend (if a friend is available). Hopefully, the soothing voice on the other end of the phone will help put you at ease and help you get to sleep.  Make sure to call someone who is already familiar with your anxiety problems so you won’t need to explain your situation. Try talking to a friend who will only listen and not add more to the conversation. Talking to someone who will make you worry more will not help you. Always make sure to call your friend the next day after you’ve settled down and thank them for their time. One way to get to sleep when anxious is to take melatonin supplements. Melatonin is a chemical that naturally occurs in our bodies and helps us go to sleep. If you’re lucky, a little melatonin will go a long way and put you to sleep in a jiffy.  Melatonin is sold over the counter in 1, 2, 3, and 5 milligram tablets. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about using melatonin before you take it. Do not take melatonin with alcohol or other controlled substances. If your anxiety is consistently undermining your ability to get to sleep, you should talk to a medical professional. Your doctor should be able to refer you to a specialist or diagnose your problem.  If anxiety undermines your ability to sleep consistently over a short amount of time, make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. Be truthful and honest with your doctor about what is causing your anxiety. If appropriate, seek help from a psychologist or psychiatrist. A doctor might put you on anxiety medicines or prescription sleep aids. One way to deal with persistent anxiety that interferes with your sleep is to get professional mental health counseling. A mental health counselor (whether a counselor, a psychiatrist, or a psychologist) will talk to you and help you identify the source of your anxiety.  Psychiatrists might choose to treat you with medication. Many counselors or psychologists will...

This will save you a great deal of time and trouble, and give you enough time to find another potential date if necessary.  If you are unsure, then ask one of his friends or someone in his social circle. Try to figure this out before asking him out. If he has a girlfriend, then he is probably going with her. In the event that your first choice is taken, having backup will ensure that you are not left without a date to the dance. Consider asking him in person or via telephone if you have his number. It is also totally acceptable to ask him through email or Facebook message if you don't want to do it face-to-face.

TL;DR in English: Determine whether or not he already has a date. Think about who else you would like to go with beforehand. Figure out how you want to ask him.

Use a brush or comb to eliminate tangles and knots. Even if you choose to do a messy fishtail, you won't want any snags. Brush your hair back, away from your forehead and behind your head. For a polished look and to prevent flyaways, try finger-combing a smoothing serum through your hair before you get started. Hair can be dry or wet, though it can be easier to braid wet hair if yours is curly or wavy.  If your hair is fine or layered, use a little styling cream or gel to keep hair from slipping out of the pleat. For a messier look, you can forget the brush and finger-comb your hair, but be certain you still get out any snags. Work a little styling product in for texture. For a side braid, brush your hair to the side, over your shoulder.

White vinegar is one of the only few liquids that is safe to use on suede. Take a towel, cotton balls or Q tips and add a few drops of water to moisten. Dab gently at the gum remains to move. Then carefully add a few drops of white vinegar. Wait a couple minutes until it dries and then brush over with a suede brush.   Never use water to clean suede. It seems counterintuitive, but water is actually damaging to suede and can stain it.   Remember to dab, don't scrub! Windex is another substance that is safe to use on suede. Like with vinegar, use only a few drops of windex on a clean towel or Q tip and dab at the gum. If there is no effect, you can try adding a few more drops of windex to your towel or Q tip. There are some sprays made specifically to clean suede. If you still have remains of gum on your suede item, you may consider buying and using one of these sprays. They can be found at major stores like Walmart or Target  Don't confuse suede cleaner spray with suede waterproofing spray. A cleaning spray will help you with your gum problem, while a waterproofing spray is meant to protect suede from water damage.

TL;DR in English: Clean suede with white vinegar. Clean suede with windex. Use a commercial suede spray.

Begin by spending some time imagining the type of job you hope to gain. (Will you work in a hospital or a fitness centre? Would you like to work with athletes or individuals with injuries? Is there anything you'd like to specialize in?) Once you have a clear image, you can look for an undergraduate program that will suit your needs. Read over the websites and credentials of different programs to determine what they focus on. When you have selected the right program, complete an application.  A strong program will have a good job placement rate for graduates. Look for a program that offers hands-on course work. Look for a program that will provide work experience, such as an internship in a fitness centre or the opportunity to work in a rehab facility. Any good program will have ASEP accreditation. ASEP stands for the American Society of Exercise Physiologists. Any strong undergraduate (or graduate) programs in exercise physiology will be accredited by ASEP. Such accreditation attached to your degree will make it much easier for you to find work after you finish school. Exercise physiologists can be employed in hospitals, fitness centres, physical therapy clinics, cardiac rehabilitation facilities, and other places. Where you hope to work will determine what level of education you need, as well as which programs will be a good fit for you. In general, a master's degree in exercise physiology is required for most professions. However, you may only require an undergraduate degree (a BS in physical education, exercise science, or health science) to work for a community organization or at the community level. If you hope to be a researcher or work at a university, you will need a PhD  Determining what level of education you ultimately hope to seek will enable you to choose the right program. Some programs will be designed to lead into graduate programs, while others will be designed for you to head into the workforce. Once you have been accepted to a program, you will need to spend roughly four years completing...

TL;DR in English: Decide on an undergraduate program. Verify that your program is ASEP accredited. Determine where you’d like to work. Determine what level of education you will seek. Complete your undergraduate program.

Your external hard drive's cable should be connected firmly to both your computer and the external hard drive, and the external hard drive should be in a position where it doesn't create any tension on the cable. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. It's in the lower-left side of the Start menu. Doing so prompts a pop-up menu. This is in the pop-up menu. Your computer will begin restarting. As soon as your computer's screen turns off, you'll need to begin pressing repeatedly the key specified by your computer's manufacturer. The BIOS is usually a minimal interface with white or colored letters on a blue or black background. Scroll over to the "Boot Order" tab using the right arrow key, or look for the "Boot Order" option in one of the menus on the main page if you don't see a "Boot Order" tab.  You may first need to select an Advanced tab to see the "Boot Order" menu. The BIOS menu varies from PC to PC, so don't be afraid to look around for the "Boot Order" section. Find your external hard drive's name or classification (e.g., External Hard Drive) in the "Boot Order" list, then press the "Down" arrow key until the external hard drive is selected. In some cases, you'll only be able to select USB devices (or similar) in this menu. If so, make sure that your external hard drive is the only USB storage attached to your computer when booting from it. Press the "Move Up" key (usually the + key) as specified by the key legend on the right side of the screen until your hard drive's name is at the top of the "Boot Order" list. In some cases, the key legend will be at the bottom of the screen instead. Usually, you'll press a key to do this, so check the key legend for a "Save and Exit" option. You may need to confirm this step by pressing another key. Once your external hard drive is selected as the boot location, your boot program or service will open; follow the on-screen prompts to open, install, or set up the program or service.  For example, if you're installing Linux, you'll be asked to...

A popular method for bringing participants to the hackathon venue is to rent a charter bus. The bus can drive through a state or 2 and pick up participants at 6 or 7 separate locations before bringing them to the hackathon location. Once participants are at the hackathon location, consider their local transportation needs. For example, if the hackathon is held at a hotel, talk to the hotel concierge and see if the hotel has a shuttle that can ferry hackathon participants around town if needed. In order to keep event participants happy and productive, they'll need to be well fed. Plan to have a light breakfast spread when participants arrive each morning, and provide a filling lunch around 1 or 2 pm. Ask participants in advance about any dietary restrictions you'll need to accommodate.  The type of food you provide depends on the hackathon budget. If you're low on cash, plenty of pizzas and soda will suffice. If you have a larger budget, look into hiring a local catering company or restaurant to provide 2 healthy meals a day. Speak with the venue manager or owner and confirm that their Wi-Fi can handle 400+ devices accessing the internet simultaneously. Also confirm that the venue has plenty of outlets to plug in laptops, phones, and tablets.  Keep in mind that many participants will bring 2 or more electronic items. Ideally, the venue should have enough outlets (or power strips) that each hackathon participant has access to on average 1.5 outlets. If the main hackathon events conclude each day at 5 or 6 pm, schedule some type of entertainment to help participants unwind and relax. Invite a local cover band to perform one evening, or rent a karaoke machine and set it up in the main conference room for guests to use. Even a minimal budget should cover a little entertainment. Call up a local bar and ask if they have a private room that a couple dozen hackathon participants could rent for the evening.

TL;DR in English: Organize transportation for hackathon participants. Order more than enough food for the hackathon. Make sure that venue has stable internet and electrical connectivity. Plan evening entertainment if the event budget permits.

Try to use an image that captures your writing style. For example, if you write horror fiction, go for something dark and sinister. If you write romance, aim for something dreamy or whimsical. Use a high-quality image with decent resolution, so that it looks crisp and professional. The image doesn't have to be of yourself. It can be any cool picture you've taken! Think of your profile description almost like a cover letter. Write something brief but engaging that draws readers in. Don't forget to include a few interesting facts about yourself, as well! You could write something like, "I'm a part-time writer, full-time dreamer who explores reveries, hallucinations, nightmares, and visions. During the day, I moonlight as a psychology student at Berkeley." Many people will pick up a book just because they find the cover art interesting, and it's no different on Wattpad! A great cover should stand out with bold colors and compelling images. Pick imagery that represents an important part of your story (without spoiling it of course).  If you have friends that are good artists, you can ask them to design a cover for your story. Make sure to give them credit on your profile.  You can find high resolution stock photos on websites like Pexels and Shutterstock. Most of these websites aren't free to use, but you may find the fees worth it. Don't neglect the font when designing your cover. The font color and size should make the title stand out, and the font style needs to match the tone of the book. For example, if you're writing a humorous story or one aimed at younger audiences, you might be able to opt for a quirky font; for a more serious book, however, choose a more sophisticated font. Your titles need to be short and catchy. Think of something that outlines the main idea of the piece and is easy to remember. Spend some time brainstorming some ideas before making a decision.  Use action words and strong verbs in your titles to get attention, like "Things Fall Apart" or "Breaking Through Barriers." Try something...

Make sure the fabric is completely submerged in the bath. Press down on the fabric using a long metal utensil, like a spatula or spoon, to get out any air bubbles that are trapped in the fabric. As you're stirring it, turn the fabric over in the container and unfold it with the utensil. That way all of the fabric will be exposed to the dye. The longer you let the fabric soak in the dye bath, the darker the final color will be. Make sure you let the fabric soak for at least 30 minutes or the dye may not stick to the fabric. Once all the dye is down the drain, leave the piece of fabric in the sink or tub. Avoid dumping the dye bath out outside.

Getting to know your chickens is a great way to develop a strong bond with them as well as give you insight into their health. Look out for their behavior and try to get a feel for their personality. In addition, keep an eye out for signs of illness, such as a pale comb (the top of their head), heavy breathing, coughing, wheezing, and a runny nose. If you have multiple chickens, try to distinguish each one's personality. You should also keep an eye out for sibling rivalry. This is especially important if you only have one pet chicken, as chickens are quite chatty. Try mimicking its coos, clucks, crows, and warbles. Some chickens respond, while others just stare, but either way, it's important to communicate with them! Always greet your chicken by its name any time you engage and visit with it—this will stimulate its brain, create a bond, and encourage it to approach you when you call. As you get more comfortable with your chicken, it will allow you to pet it. Call it by its name and when it approaches, gently pet it. The sweet spot is the back of its neck underneath the fluff of its feathers—gently rub it here to calm it.  Over time, your chicken might be comfortable sitting in your lap and letting you pet it. Try carrying your chicken around while you pet it to make it feel more comfortable around you. Chickens have a great sense of hearing and respond not just to various sounds but also pleasant-sounding music. Try playing some classical music in front of your chicken. You can also hum, whistle, and sing to get its attention. Try playing a flute or guitar for your chicken. Try scattering some oats or other treats along the ground and move around while doing so. Play hide-and-seek by hiding while your chicken forages and clucking to it. You can also dig a small hole, hide a red bell pepper or red fruit (without seeds) and fill it loosely with dirt—chickens are drawn to the color red.

Older incandescent light bulbs do not contain liquid mercury.  But, some newer energy-saving compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs do.  Check the packaging that the bulbs came in for warnings regarding their mercury content.  Energy-saving bulbs typically contain no more than 4 mg of mercury—just enough to cover the tip of a pen. Even if the CFL bulb contains mercury, it might be in gaseous rather than liquid form. LED bulbs don’t contain liquid mercury. Tilt switches (sometimes called “mercury switches”) were used in older appliances to transmit an on/off signal.  Appliances in the home that may contain mercury include chest freezers, televisions, thermostats, washing machines, space heaters, clothes dryers, and washing machines.  Contact the appliance manufacturer or check your user manual to confirm if a given appliance has mercury. Contact an appliance recycler or your local hazardous waste collection center for information regarding the best way to dispose of these appliances. You might be able to locate up to 3 grams of mercury in thermostats. Most normal batteries do not contain mercury.  However, the smaller “button cell” batteries that are used in watches, hearing aids, toys, pacemakers, and other devices still contain mercury.  If you can find a device containing these small batteries, you’ve probably found liquid mercury. Certain pharmaceutical products might contain liquid mercury.  Skin antiseptics, facial creams, contact lens solutions, and some vaccines could contain liquid mercury.  To confirm that your pharmaceutical products contain liquid mercury, check the ingredients label or contact the manufacturer. Clocks from the 1600s or before often used liquid mercury as a pendulum weight.  If you own such a clock, it probably contains liquid mercury.

HDMI ports are usually labeled "HDMI," and are rectangular (like a USB port) with a tapered bottom edge. You'll usually find one or two on the back of the TV.  If you don't have an HDMI port, look for a VGA port. VGA ports are also rectangular but have 3 rows of small circles. HDMI transmits audio, but VGA does not. If you have to use VGA, you can still hear audio through the TV by connecting the iPad to its headphone port. You'll need a 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio cable that can run from your iPad's headphone jack to the TV. If your iPad doesn't have a headset jack, you'll also need a USB-C to 3.5 mm headphone jack adapter. As long as your TV has either an HDMI or VGA port, you can connect your iPad to it with a compatible adapter. The exact adapter you'll need depends on the type of port that's on your iPad:  If you're using an iPad (4th generation or later), iPad Air, iPad Mini, or iPad Pro, you'll need a Lightning Digital AV Adapter (HDMI) or a Lighting to VGA Adapter (VGA). The Lightning port is the small oval port at the bottom of the tablet. If you have an iPad 1, iPad 2, or iPad 3, you'll need an Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter (HDMI) or Apple 30-pin to VGA adapter (VGA). The 30-pin port is the wide oval at the bottom of the tablet. The adapter should fit securely into the same port you use to charge your iPad. If you're using VGA, connect the VGA cable to the VGA port instead. Your iPad should now be connected to the TV. Depending on your TV, you may have to use the remote control to select the HDMI or VGA port you're using. The button on the remote is usually labeled "Source" or "Input." Once you get to the right input, you should see your iPad's screen on the television. If you're using a VGA adapter and want to hear sound from the TV, connect the 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio aux cable (and adapter, if necessary) to your iPad, and then plug the other end into the TV's headphone jack. Now that your iPad is connected to the TV, anything you do on the tablet will appear on the TV screen. You can play videos, browse...

Consider the benefits package your employees have, if you have any control over this. Start a work at home policy. Give out bonuses. Upgrade the health care packages. Offer unlimited, paid vacation. Fund education. Give raises.

Rather than focusing on getting your own points across, stop and listen what the other person is saying.  Focus on really listening, by breaking down their viewpoint and where they are coming from.  Ask questions for clarification to show that you are interested and listening.  Once they are done speaking, consider paraphrasing what they said.  For example, say something like, "It sounds like you think he's the strong candidate due to his economic policies and his confident style of speaking.  Is that right?" Showing that you can listen will actually make for a more productive conversation because other people like to know they've been heard, even if you may disagree with their views. It's important that you are able to articulate your thoughts and views in a clear and concise way.  If your points are clouded by strong emotions and anger, there is likely little opportunity for a productive conversation.  The same goes for when someone else wants to speak their mind.  This will likely just make both sides feel uncomfortable.  Humility is key to effective communication, whether it's about politics or other hot-button issues.  Show that you are interested in an open and shared conversation, rather than aggressive attack on other people's views. Think before you speak.  Be clear about what you want to say and why.  Don't start talking and then end up having to back-pedal to figure out what your point was. Each person has a right to their own political views.  While you may have strong views about the economy, certain social service programs, or the environment, conversations about these and other political issues are likely to go nowhere if you don't respect each other's rights.  Give each person a chance to speak.  For example, say, "I respect your opinion," or "I can see you viewpoint on this is important to you." If you feel like you want to still show that you are strongly against their views but respect their rights to have a different opinion, consider very careful wording such as, "While I have a different...

Every autistic person is unique, and what works for one child may not work for another. The child's attention span, sensory issues, and communication ability will all come into play in going to a restaurant. Respect where the child's ability is, as not all autistic children are able to successfully have an outing at a restaurant, no matter the wishes and good intentions.   Do not base your child's ability or needs on any other individual on the autistic spectrum. While it may be inspirational that one child can visit a restaurant, that does not mean your child will have the same outcome for better or worse. It is also possible that your autistic child may have no interest in eating at a restaurant, or find it a painful or frustrating experience. Pushing too hard too fast can be bad for all concerned. Err on the side of moving slowly and gradually rather than quickly. Autistic people may have issues with things such as florescent lights, loud noises, crowds, music, and waiting. Look for a restaurant avoids these sensory and other issues. For example:  A fast-food restaurant may be the best choice for a person who cannot handle sitting and waiting for something to happen. For an individual who gets overwhelmed with crowds, go to a quiet cafe on off-peak hours. If lighting is an issue, perhaps an outdoor eatery is best. Go through a menu, order food, and practice sitting in a chair, and waiting patiently for your food to arrive. Doing this should give a good idea of how your child may do at a real restaurant.  Remember that many (not all) autistic children have a difficult time with the idea of pretending and have a hard time generalizing from one situation to another. If you pretend to order at a restaurant at home, they may not be able to perform the task at the restaurant because it is not home. Be sure to alert your child in advance when you are going to do this, as this will be a break in routine for them, and this can be confusing and upsetting for an autistic person.

Offering a better retirement plan or health insurance can give them an extra incentive to work hard and keep their jobs. Giving dedicated individuals a way to earn extra vacation time can also boost employee morale. It doesn't have to be all the time. Utility costs can be cut down by having employees work from home. There is no commute, and you cut down on office social distractions. Annual bonuses and bonuses based on goals can really give your team a morale boost. Bonuses aren't as much of a commitment as raises, given that they are one-time payments. This can feel like a raise, but it has only a temporary effect. Beware providing regular bonuses and then eliminating them. Employees may feel a morale boost leading up to getting a bonus, not just after. It can be very deflating to lose a bonus one was expecting. Also, research indicates that only substantial bonuses have any positive impact on employee behavior. If there are none, offer them. Your employees will be healthy, increasing their morale. They will feel that their position has more worth. It can contribute to a feeling of security, especially when spouses and children are covered. It has been shown, for both the public and private sector, that employee satisfaction and productivity can be enhanced by providing health care benefits. This may seem like an excuse to slack off, but it reality it can result in productivity, as vacation improves health and focus. It can also save money, as for some companies the average worker has an accumulated $2-4,000 in unused vacation. It also fosters loyalty, as the perk is difficult to give up. Abuse is controlled by the employee's desire to keep their job and to appear diligent.  Gohealthinsurance.com implemented this policy, and in the same year reported a 200% in growth.

Many owners remark that their bitch changes character during pregnancy: she seems sleepier, more lethargic, and starts to build nests. However, these are also the signs associated with pseudopregnancy, or false pregnancy, where the bitch behaves as if she is pregnant when in fact she isn't. Some bitches with a false pregnancy even start producing milk, so enlarged mammary glands are not conclusive evidence of pregnancy. One of the more reliable signs of pregnancy is if a female dog "pinks up," which describes the enlargement of her nipples. They become larger and often develop a rosy hue (hence the term "pinking").  A pregnant bitch doesn't produce milk until near the end of gestation (or sometimes only after the puppies are born). Note that you'll still need to have your dog tested for pregnancy to confirm. Prominent pink nipples four or so weeks after mating are a highly suspect (but inconclusive) clue to pregnancy. As with pregnant women, an expanding center is a strong hint–but it should be interpreted with caution. In a healthy, fit bitch, her body silhouette may not show obvious changes until 50-55 days of pregnancy, when the womb is sufficiently enlarged to fill the tummy. Your dog does not need to take in extra calories until the final third of the pregnancy (after about 40 days). This means if you feed her extra early in the suspected pregnancy, she is likely to gain weight, but it will be fat and not necessarily puppies. If your dog is struggling during pregnancy, she needs help; however, there is also a distinct chance she is not pregnant, but has a condition mimicking pregnancy, including false pregnancy and pyometra. While a false pregnancy (usually caused by a hormonal imbalance after heat) is not life-threatening, a pyometra definitely is. The latter is where the womb fills with pus, which causes blood poisoning, organ failure, and, if left untreated, death. The symptoms of pyometra can mimic pregnancy in that your dog's tummy may enlarge and she lacks energy. However, she is also likely to...

TL;DR in English: Observe your dog for lethargy and other behavioral changes. Notice if your dog's nipples are growing. Look for an expanding waistline. Familiarize yourself with the conditions that mimic pregnancy.

There are a number of symptoms, referred to as pre-syncope, that you may experience immediately before fainting. Most fainting spells occur when you are standing, and recognizing warning signs will help you prepare yourself if you do indeed faint. In addition, awareness can also help to prevent a fainting episode and will help you stay safe if you do faint. Common symptoms include yawning, a sudden sweat, nausea (sickness), fast and deep breathing, confusion, lightheadedness, blurred vision or spots in front of your eyes, and ringing in your ears. The symptoms of fainting can come on very quickly and with little warning. If you experience the above symptoms it is a good idea to conduct 'antigravity' measures, which when done immediately upon feeling symptoms, can help you avoid a fainting episode.  Medical experts suggest that you lie or sit down and place your head between your knees. These positions will help restore blood flow to the brain and can prevent a fainting episode.   If standing, you can also cross your legs and tightening your abdominal muscles. This is effective if you are in a crowded place and you are unable to lie down immediately. By preparing, you can ensure that you are in a safe and secure place when you faint. Try telling someone near you what is happening and ask for assistance, try lying down, or try bracing yourself against a wall to prepare. If you find yourself on stairs or other precarious surroundings, sit down and hold on to a railing immediately. If you do faint, blood flow will resume to your brain naturally and you should regain consciousness in two minutes or less. It is normal to feel weak and confused for 20 to 30 minutes after fainting. Remain calm when you regain consciousness. Also, take some time to lay on your back to allow blood flow back to the brain. You should also hydrate yourself with water.

TL;DR in English: Determine if a fainting spell is approaching. React quickly to the symptoms. Prepare yourself for losing consciousness. Take it slowly if you do faint.

This method turns a few ordinary paper bags into a booklet that's a little bigger than the eight page booklet described above. The type of bag you'll want to use is the skinny, narrow paper bag with a "flap" at the bottom that's frequently used for packing lunches. White paper bags are easiest for writing and reading purposes, but standard brown bags also work fine. You'll also want to have a hole punch and some string or ribbon handy. You don't specifically have to use lunch bags for this booklet — you're just looking for skinny paper bags with a "flap" at the bottom that allows the bag to stand upright when it's opened. As long as all your bags are the same size and shape, you can make a booklet using almost any of this type of paper bag. At this point, you can continue adding bags as you wish, though you don't have to. The more bags you add, the  more pages your booklet will have. If you want to add more bags, use the same alternating  pattern you've established — your next bag should be flap side-up with its flap on the right, the bag after that should have its flap on the left, and so on. If you stick with just three bags, your booklet will have a total of 10 pages once it's completed.

TL;DR in English:


Get a book with very thin paper. Tear out a page with a small amount of printing on it. Cut a rectangle from the page. Fold the paper in half lengthwise. Add smoking material to the paper. Roll the paper between your thumbs and index finger. Lick the end of the paper gently to seal the cigarette. Light one end while inhaling from the other end.

You can do just about any shoe with fitted sweatpants as long as you match it to the outfit. Since the pants are cropped, your shoes are going to stand out and give you an opportunity to dress up your sweats or keep them casual. A classic black pump always looks fierce and can even work with more casual ensembles.  Stilettos or heeled sandals are perfect for date-night or a girl’s night out. A fancier shoe is going to elevate your outfit. For more casual wear, try slip-on sneakers, Chuck Taylors, wedge sneakers, booties, or ballet flats.  Avoid Ugg boots or flip-flops, they scream “shlubby” when worn with sweats. You need to pay extra attention to the details to make sweatpants look great. Carefully select one or two accessories (like a floating lapel, a colorful shoe, or a pattered clutch) but don’t go overboard with big earrings, plus layers of necklaces, plus a hat and scarf.  Carry a structured or high-end handbag to dress up your outfit. An oversize tote looks cute for running errands on the weekend. Round or oversize sunglasses will make your look super chic. A beanie will give your outfit a casual, athletic vibe. Add some glamour with a nice pair of drop earrings or a statement necklace. Try a large, eye-catching bracelet or watch and simple stud earrings. To avoid looking like you just rolled out of bed, use a large-barreled curling iron to make chic waves, or pull your hair back in a sleek pony. Make sure your brows are on-point and your makeup is flawless. Make it clear that you're not shlubbing in your sweats--you're fashion-forward, and you put in the effort to pull it off.   Instantly elevate your look with a bold red lip. Pull your hair up in a trendy topknot or a messy bun—just make sure it’s more chic than sloppy. This means taking high-fashion pieces and pairing them with casual, everyday pieces. Remember that when people see sweatpants, they automatically think "lazy," so fight that by mixing your sweats with high-fashion pieces. Wear your sweats as you would a nice pair of trousers.  Tuck...

TL;DR in English: Match the shoes to the outfit. Accessorize, but keep it simple. Style your hair and makeup. Mix high and low fashion. Go casual. Break the rules.

Many people who contemplate suicide are able to move past their feelings and improve their outlook on life when healthcare professionals give them coping mechanisms and other kinds of support. It is okay to have thoughts about suicide, but it is not okay to act on them; there are other ways to handle your pain. Be bold and change the situations that are making you unhappy. Change schools. If all your friends are toxic, try to make new, true friends. Move out of wherever you are living. Leave an abusive relationship. Accept your parents' disapproval of your personal choices or lifestyle and work through the emotional issues these situations can cause.  A therapist can help you to work through these emotional issues so that you they have less of an impact on your or help you to know whether you need to cut off negative influences in your life. Suicide is a drastic measure but there are other drastic measures that are not irreversible. Sometimes suicidal feelings are related to anger and resentment you feel toward others. Don't turn that anger inward. Hurting yourself won't help you really get back at anyone, and it is beyond not worth it. Instead, think about all you have to offer to the people you'll meet in the future. The fact of the matter is, if you have had suicidal thoughts at one point, you're more likely to experience these thoughts and feelings in the future. This means that, even if you're feeling better for a variety of reasons, you should always be vigilant and make sure to take care of yourself as much as you can. Get enough rest, get plenty of exercise, work on maintaining meaningful relationships with people, and don't neglect the care of your own mind and body. Staying healthy and happy should always be your top priority.  Even if you're feeling better, it's important to have a strong support system around you and to continue the treatment that helped you get better. If you don't have a support system, a therapist can help you build one so you feel like you have more people to turn to. However,...

TL;DR in English: Know that people do get through this. Realize that you can make fresh choices for change every day. Do not think of suicide as a revenge strategy. Continue caring for yourself even after the feelings subside.

A book with pages like a bible is a good choice for this purpose. A book printed on rice paper is the best option. The ink may add unwanted chemicals to your smoking experience. Cut a small rectangle approximately 2 inches long by 1 ½ inches wide. Make a crease in the center of the paper to hold your smoking material in the center of a “V” shape. Place a small amount of crumpled smoking material in the V of the fold. Create a rolled cigarette by pinching the paper in the middle and roll it between your fingers. Roll the material towards one end of the paper and wrap the paper around the smoking material. Use your saliva as a glue to stick the paper to itself. Seal the ends of the cigarette by twisting the paper gently to keep the smoking material from falling out. Breathe in slowly as you light the end to get the paper and smoking material to begin to burn.

TL;DR in English:


Take a 30 minute to 1 hour break before drinking more SUPREP. Call your doctor to ask for advice. Notify your doctor immediately if you can’t keep any fluids down.

Question everything. Study logic. Write in sentences. Rewrite statements with the contrapositive. Ask yourself about the converse of a statement.

Give yourself a rest from the SUPREP. Place the unused portion of your medicine in the refrigerator to keep it cool and sip on some cold water. After your break, drink the SUPREP slowly, taking longer rests between sips. If you haven’t already, try disguising the taste of the SUPREP as described above. You can use hard candies that don't contain red dyes. If nothing else is working, your doctor might be able to help. They may offer you another option for clearing your bowel, or you might be able to get an anti-nausea medication. You may need to call the facility where you are having the colonoscopy, depending on your doctor’s instructions. They should provide you this information when they prescribe the SUPREP. When you’re taking SUPREP, it’s important to drink a lot of extra fluids. The medicine is causing your body to produce diarrhea to clean out your system, so you need to drink more fluids to replace the ones you're losing. If you cannot keep any fluids down, you are at risk for dehydration. Dehydration can be serious, so don’t hesitate to call your doctor.

TL;DR in English: Take a 30 minute to 1 hour break before drinking more SUPREP. Call your doctor to ask for advice. Notify your doctor immediately if you can’t keep fluids down.

Under "Storage" you will scroll down until you find the icon "Unmount SD Card."  Wait until your phone says it is safe to eject the SD card.  Slowly pull it out so you do not bend or damage the card. Look for missing gold prongs, and for chips or dents in the card.  If the SD card appears to be physically damaged, you may be required to replace the SD card.  These can be bought fairly cheaply at most technology stores. Before you put it back in, blow on it gently, or wipe it off with a soft cloth.  This will get rid of any dust particles potentially interfering with your card.  Do not continuously reinsert the card otherwise you could cause damage to both the card and the port. Plug your device into the wall charger for at least 15 minutes.  You can then turn on the device using the button at the bottom.  If for some reason your device isn't turning on, let it charge for a little while longer before you try again. Your device should read "Mount SD Card" when you go under the "Storage" setting.  If your device still reads "Unmount SD Card" there may be a problem of communication between the SD port and the phone itself.  This is most likely an internal problem which can only be fixed by taking your phone to your nearest technology professional. If the SD card works properly in another device, then your SD card slot may be faulty on the original device in which the card was tested.  If the SD card fails to mount to another device, you may be required to replace the SD card.  Make sure before you put your Sd card into another device, that that device is also fully charged.

TL;DR in English: Remove your SD card from the SD card slot on your device. Inspect the SD card for any physical damage that may be preventing your device from reading it properly. Reinsert the SD card into the SD card slot on your device. Charge and power on your device. Attempt to mount the SD card again. Test the SD card in another device if it fails to mount properly.

When looking at something that is said to be true, see if you can prove it. If someone tells you something is true, ask them to prove it to you. Trying to prove something to yourself will help you exercise your math brain and start thinking about all math problems in this way. Logic is the foundation of a mathematical argument and necessary to developing a proper proof. There are self-study guides online or textbooks you can purchase to study logic. You can also sign up to take a logic course at the local college.  Spend time working through logic problems and cultivating that type of thought process. Logic will help you write proofs in an ordered way that people won’t be able to find error with. Although it may seem strange to use sentences to explain equations and numbers, a proper mathematical proof is written out in a grammatically correct sentence. If you can’t write your argument in a sentence, you may not fully understand what you are trying to say and need to think about it more.  When writing a proof, always write in full sentences. Study old proofs to get an idea of the proper format to use. The contrapositive of a statement “If A, then B” is “If not B, then not A”. As an example, the contrapositive of the statement “If I’m from New York, I am American” is “If I am not American, I am not from New York”. The contrapositive is always true which can sometimes be difficult to wrap your head around. Always rewrite statements with the contrapositive to exercise that thought process. The converse of a statement such as “If A, then B” is “If B, then A”. The converse is not necessarily a true statement. When studying a problem, always ask yourself if the converse is true and then try to prove it. Even if it’s not true, it’s a good exercise to keep in mind when thinking about problems.

If only your hot water taps have low pressure, look for a problem at your water heater. Here are the most common problems:  Sediment clogging the water heater or the hot water supply line. flush the tank, then hire a plumber if that doesn't work. To prevent this happening again, replace the anode rod regularly and consider Installing a water softener. Hot water supply pipes that are too small. In most cases the pipe leading from your water heater should have at least a ¾" (19mm) diameter. Leaks in the valves or the tank itself. Only attempt to repair these yourself if the leak is minor and you have experience with plumbing projects. Leaks are a common cause of low pressure. Conduct a quick check for damp spots beneath pipes, especially at the main supply line. Fix any leaky pipes you encounter.  Small damp spots may be caused by condensation. Put down a couple paper towels and come back the next day to see if they are wet. If they are, you have a problem. A leaky toilet mechanism fails to block the flow from the tank to the bowl. Put a few drops of food coloring in the tank, and come back after an hour or two without flushing the toilet. If the food coloring has entered the bowl, your toilet needs a repair. Typically, all it needs is a new flapper or another cheap and easy fix. If you can hear your toilet running constantly, that's definitely a drain on your pressure. Learn how to fix it. If you still haven't found any leaks, it's time to check your water meter to confirm or deny their existence. Shut off all water in the house, then read the meter. There are two ways to check for leaks using the meter:  If the small triangular or disk-shaped dial on the meter is spinning, water is still flowing. Assuming everything is shut off properly, you have a leak. Write down the reading, wait a couple hours without using any water, then check again. If you get a different reading, you have a leak. Look for the master shutoff valve near your water meter. If it's been knocked to a partially closed position, turn it back...

Setting is a definite skill and maintains the offensive for the team. They must be able to operate in tandem with the hitters and place the ball exactly where it needs to be for the attacker to strike the ball effectively.  They must be swift and agile in addition to having technical accuracy when it comes to launching the ball. With a bad set, the ball is going nowhere. Just be warned: setters have a lot of restrictions. When they are in the front row they can attack and hit the ball at their will, but, when they are back row, they may not attack any ball that is above the net. " If you're getting up there in skill, using a libero may be a strategy your team wants to employ. This is not counted as a substitution -- this player wears a different color.  This player receives the attack or serve and must have cat-like reflexes. They are a "defensive specialist." They usually replace the middle blocker or center when they are supposed to rotate into the back row. If you have a player that is great at receiving attacks, put 'em in as the libero. That literally means "free," as in they're free to sub in and out as often as they want. However, they cannot play in the front row. Each designation of hitter has their strong points. Look at your team and see who falls into what category:  Middle hitters must perform fast attacks and be decent blockers. They are playing offense and defense constantly.  Opposite hitters (or right-side hitters) are a back-up setter and primarily work on defense. They must provide a good block at all times because they are essentially blocking the opposing team's outside, or strong-side, hitter.  Outside hitters should be the most consistent hitter on the team as that's generally where all the serves go. They are also often employed if a first pass goes astray from the middle. Though some leagues will allow unlimited substitutions, international rules say that you can have a maximum of 6 (not including the libero). You can also pull in a serving specialist or a defensive specialist (not...

TL;DR in English: Have designated setters. Use a "libero. Employ middle, opposite and outside hitters. Substitute players. Consider different formations. Always try to pay attention!

While you don't have to cut out coffee completely to better you sleep schedule, be conscious about when you drink caffeine and in what amount.  Moderate caffeine intake, which is around three 8 ounce cups of coffee a day, is not associated with any health risks. However, consuming even a moderate amount of caffeine late in the day affects sleep. As caffeine is a stimulant, it can increase alertness and even induce anxiety. This can easily result in trouble sleeping.  Try to keep your caffeine consumption early in the day. Avoid drinking caffeinated beverages after 2PM. While coffee is a major culprit when it comes to caffeine, be aware some teas and many sodas also contain caffeine. Regular physical activity is greatly beneficial to forming a good sleep schedule. However, exercising too late in the day can make sleeping difficult.  Try to get some vigorous physical aerobic activity in, like jogging, 3 or 4 times a week. This can help with your overall health and also help regulate your circadian rhythm. However, do not engage in vigorous exercise within 2 to 3 hours before bed.  If physical activity helps you unwind after a long day, try moderate activity like a brief walk around the block close to bedtime. Having established ritual you associate with bedtime can help signal your body that it's time to wind down and rest. Choose a low-key, relaxing activity to engage in close to bedtime.  Many people enjoy non-caffeinated tea as it has a calming effect for some. Try chamomile tea or SleepyTime teas sold at supermarkets.  Reading is a great activity to slow your mind down in preparation for sleep. However, be mindful of the material you read. Anything too heavy may distress you, making sleep more difficult.  Watching television can interfere with sleep, due to the light it produces. However, if there's a particular show that helps you calm down it might be okay to watch a small amount of television. Watch lighthearted programming over the news or drama shows. You do not want to watch anything that will cause...

Purchase the oil recommended for your paper shredder by the manufacturer. Different shredders will use different oils and will usually sell the oil where you purchased your shredder. If you are using an old and/or out of warranty paper shredder, you can use canola oil as a substitute rather than purchasing oil. The oil produced by some brands is actually just repackaged canola oil so you can save a little money by using canola oil. Setting the shredder to manual mode allows you to control the direction that the blades are rotating and the length of time that they are moving. You will need this for oiling the paper. While the paper shredder is off, squirt a line of oil lengthwise across the paper entry. This puts oil along the entire length of the blades. Start the paper shredder in the reverse direction and keep it in motion for 10-20 seconds before stopping the blades. This way the oil is spread and redistributed around to the entire cutting assembly. Turn off manual mode and restart the machine in automatic mode for normal use. Pass at least two or three more pieces of paper into the shredder so that they absorb the extra oil left on the blades.

TL;DR in English: Obtain manufacturer-approved oil. Set the shredder to manual mode. Squirt a little oil along the paper entry line. Run the shredder in reverse for 10-20 seconds. Put the shredder back to automatic mode. Feed a few papers into the shredder to absorb the excess oil.

You can also buy fiberfill and fill the pillow with stuffing yourself. This project is easily customizable according to the size of pillow you want to use. You can get really creative here. Lots of people choose a solid color for one piece of fleece, and a coordinating pattern for the other. Some people choose to go simple with two different solid colors. The possibilities and combinations are endless! Depending on the size of your pillow, you will need about 1 yard (0.92 meters) of each type of fleece. This is important, because you won't be turning the pillow inside-out afterwards. It may not make much of a difference if you are using a solid color, but some patterned fleeces may be blank on one side, which would make a difference. Use a sharp pair of fabric scissors, or rotary cutter, and a straight edge to cut through both pieces of fleece at the same time. This will ensure that both pieces are even and that they match up. If you are working with a large pillow, or if you'd like a longer fringe, cut the fleece so that it is 8 inches (20.32 centimeters) longer and 8 inches (20.32 centimeters) wider than your pillow. This will make your fringe neater in the end. Consider drawing the squares first with a ruler and a piece of chalk to ensure that the squares are neat and even. If they are crooked, your fringe may not turn out right. If you are working with a large pillow, or if you'd like a longer fringe, cut 4-inch (10.16-centimeter) squares out of each corner instead. Be sure to cut through both layers of fleece at the same time. This ensures that the fringes match up. Use a piece of chalk to draw the lines, if you need to. If you are working with a large pillow, or if you'd like a longer fringe, cut the slits 4 inches (10.16 centimeters) deep instead. Tie the top piece to the matching bottom piece in a tight double knot. Keep doing this until you have completed three sides. If you are using fiberfill, tie most of the fourth side shut, but leave four ties undone. If you are using fiberfill, simply stuff...

Taking a quick bath or shower softens you back hairs and relaxes your skin. This can make it a lot easier to remove the hair, so while it's not essential, it's usually a wise idea.  You don't need to wash with soap yet — this will come later.  Note: As with waxing, it's best to do this method the day before you need to show off your back so any redness and irritation will have a chance to subside. Most epilators work better on dry skin. Some, however, are designed to be used in wet environments — check the packaging if you are unsure. Optionally, you can apply some talc or baby powder after drying off with a towel. This will further dry the hair in addition to getting it to stand up, making epilation easier. Turn the epilator on. Get an assistant to drag it slowly across the patches of hair on your back. The teeth of the epilator will pull the hairs out (similar to how a waxing strip would). This is generally described as being painful, though there is some debate about whether waxing or epilating hurts more. As when waxing, don't hesitate to take breaks. If the pain is too intense, dragging the epilator across the skin more quickly can reduce the amount of time you have to endure the pain. However, you may need to go back over the same patch multiple times if you miss hairs. When you're done, your back will likely be red and irritated. To help prevent infection, wash gently with soap and warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel when done.

Steep the herbs in oil to preserve the herbs long term. Harvest and clean herbs as per instructions above. Choose an oil. Decide whether to keep the leaves attached to the stem or remove them and add them separately. Keep in a cool or refrigerated place, especially during warmer months.

You can retrieve the IMEI/MEID number on virtually any phone by dialing in the universal code. Dial *#06#. You typically will not need to press the Call or Send button, as the IMEI/MEID number will appear as soon as you finish dialing the code. Your IMEI/MEID number will appear in a new window on your phone. Write the number down as it is not possible to copy and paste it from your phone's display. Most phones will tell you when the number is displayed if it is an IMEI or MEID number. If your phone doesn't you can verify which number it is by checking what carrier you use. GSM networks like AT&T and T-Mobile use IMEI numbers. CDMA networks such as Sprint, Verizon, and US Cellular use MEID numbers.

TL;DR in English: Dial the IMEI code. Copy the number.

Get out one 9-inch (23-cm) unbaked pie shell in a pie plate. You can make your favorite pie crust recipe or buy a refrigerated premade crust. Cover the pie crust with plastic wrap. Put the pie shell in the fridge and chill it for 40 minutes. Then put it in the freezer for 20 minutes. Chilling and freezing the pie shell will keep it crisp as it bakes. Turn the oven on to 375 degrees F (190 C) and put a rack in the lower-middle shelf of the oven. Take the chilled pie shell out of the freezer. Remove the plastic wrap and lay a large sheet of parchment paper over the shell. Fill it with pie weights and bake the shell for 20 to 25 minutes. The pie crust won't bake completely. It will finish baking once you've poured the filling in and bake the entire pie. Par-baking ensures a crispy crust. Take the pie shell out of the oven and carefully lift out the parchment paper and pie weights. Scatter 3 ounces (90 g) of finely chopped bittersweet chocolate over the crust while it's still hot. Wait 5 minutes and then use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the melted chocolate evenly across the crust. Set the pie shell aside while you make the filling. If you don't want to chop your own chocolate, you could use bittersweet chocolate chips. Cut one stick (8 tablespoons or 113 g) of butter into 8 pieces. Put the butter into a small saucepan. Turn the heat to medium low and stir the butter constantly until it melts and turns brown. You'll need to heat it for about 5 to 7 minutes. If you want to use bourbon, turn off the heat and slowly stir in 3 tablespoons of it. Let the butter cool for 5 minutes. Don't worry if the butter foams up a lot when you add the bourbon. It will settle down as it rests. Get out a mixing bowl and put 3/4 cup (150 g) of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (100 g) of packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt into it. Whisk the dry ingredients together until they're completely combined. Crack two large eggs into the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients. You'll also need...

TL;DR in English: Chill and freeze the pie shell. Preheat the oven and bake the crust. Remove the pie weights and spread chocolate over the hot crust.

However, see the Warnings below first.  Olive oil is preferred but any other oils that you like are generally fine. If you want to use the oil as herbal flavoured oil, the stems are fine.  Place in a bottle as a container; herbs remaining on their stem inside the oil bottle look very attractive as ornamental arrangements, as well as being useful culinary items. If you wish to remove the herbal leaves for cooking, a shorter, wider container is preferable to enable you to put in a spoon and scoop out the herbs and oil. Use within 6 months of preparation.
